Cirkus

"One" is the debut full-length studio album by UK progressive rock act Cirkus. Formed from the ashes of bands Moonhead and Lucas Tyson, the group's high standard of musicianship was well known in their native north-east where they attracted much attention and had a devoted following. It was felt that the quintet could achieve success on a national scale, provided management handled matters properly and they got the right breaks. In 1973 they recorded their debut album "Cirkus One" at Sound Associates/Emison & Air Studios and just 1000 copies were pressed up. It is widely regarded by many collectors today as the most musically accomplished private pressing of its kind to emerge out of the UK's then burgeoning progressive music scene, influenced by KING CRIMSON and YES.

The main idea is that behind Heavy Metal and Rock ‘n’ Roll is solely the Blues influence. That’s not true and not fair with reality, because the seminal genres that are (along with Blues) behind the things are Country, Gospel, Rhythm & Blues and some others. So these genres unleashed a great diversity into Rock ‘n’ Roll womb. And that diversity can be heard on the Swedish quartet CIRKUS PRUTZ, and a hearing on “White Jazz - Black Magic - More Stories From the Left Hand Path” is enough to have this idea…

To celebrate the completion of the trilogy the band decided to do a one-off show in front of a seated audience at Cirkus, a classic venue in Stockholm.
